                                CALL FOR ARTICLES

        Humanities Collections is a new quarterly journal devoted to writing
and research on primary and secondary collections. The journal seeks contri-
butions from librarians, archivists, curators, historians, writers, and
humanities scholars who work in national and international collections.

        Articles should address research and scholarship in collections in
the following areas:

        philosophy      religion        folklore
        visual arts     literature      languages
        music           dance           theater


Interdisciplinary studies -- women's studies, African American studies, Latin
American studies, Middle Eastern studies, Judaic studies, film studies, gay
and lesbian studies, for example -- will also be included.

Humanities Collections will also examine critical issues facing the humanities
in the area of technology. Issues to be examined include digital imaging, text-
encoding projects, Internet sites, multimedia projects, humanists' use of the
technology, and projects undertaken to provide greater access to materials in
remote collections.  Preservation issues concerning manuscripts and archival
materials will also be addressed.

Contributors are invited to forward title and abstract of a proposed article to:
